URGENT: Defund Abortion Votes Pending

May 23, 2026

Congress is moving forward with a budget that does not yet ban funding Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion. Several critical votes are coming next week, and even more as we approach June 1. The battle to pass it will be intense.

Planned Parenthood is desperate.

This is a pivotal point in the congressional budget process. What happens will determine not only the resolve of Congress on this issue, but also their commitment and backbone to fight for core values.

Currently, there is NOTHING in this bill to block hundreds of millions of dollars from flowing back into Planned Parenthood and other abortion giants. Once this funding pipeline is locked in, undoing it later will become exponentially more difficult.

Take action right now. Send your urgent faxes to Congress demanding they DEFUND Big Abortion TODAY.

This may be the best — and perhaps ONLY — opportunity to cut off hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars from the abortion industry. The stakes couldn’t be higher.

But there’s a serious problem standing in our way.

A Dangerous Excuse from Inside the Republican Party

You’d think every Republican would support defunding Planned Parenthood. But that’s not the case.

A few key members of Congress — Republicans we need to pass this budget — are dragging their feet. Some want to kick the can down the road until AFTER the midterm election to defund Planned Parenthood.

Their excuse? They hope to gain more Republican seats and expand their majority first.

That is a deadly mistake.

Here’s the truth: Since 1969, only ONE TIME has the party in power gained seats in the midterms. Just once in 50+ years. And these members should KNOW that.

They are not strategizing — they are stalling.

Some care more about their party majority than about the babies our tax dollars will kill over the next few years! And if they refuse to govern with conviction now, they may lose that majority anyway.

Letting Planned Parenthood keep its funding now is not a strategic move. It’s cowardice. It’s a compromise. And it means hundreds of millions more taxpayer dollars to fund the death of innocent babies.

That’s why we must draw a line in the sand — TODAY.

We don’t need to wait. We need members to have a backbone.

And we need YOU to help give it to them. Fax them now!

If members of Congress don’t hear from us on this TODAY, they might back down. That’s exactly what Planned Parenthood and their allies want to achieve.

Let me be clear: Next week is a moment of decision. This is where funding gets locked in — or locked out.

Planned Parenthood funding in 2024 hit 832 million. That’s more than 2 million dollars every day from taxpayers.  And Planned Parenthood is going to fight our efforts every inch of the way.

And unless we step up and say NO — unless we flood Congress with thousands of messages right now — the deadly pipeline of taxpayer funding will return.

At Liberty Counsel Action, we are leading this fight. We are meeting with members of Congress. We are drafting policy language to remove abortion funding from every part of the budget.

But we can’t do this alone. We need your voice and support.

The pro-abortion lobby has millions of dollars. They have the media. They have powerful allies in Washington, and those allies make some legislators afraid. Compromise and delay will backfire. Delay and compromise will only strengthen the abortion industry.

We are fighting some of the best-funded lobbyists on Capitol Hill. If we win this battle, we could finally take a massive step toward ending federal support for the abortion industry.

But if we lose — or if we wait a few years — the results will be deadly.

Please stand with us right now with your single gift or set up a recurring donation to help us hold Congress accountable today and in the future.

Together, we can stop funding this evil. But only if we act — and act now.

For life and liberty,

Mat Staver, Chairman
John Stemberger, President
